Starlight Mint Pink Hot Chocolate

Chase away winter's chill with yummy hot chocolate that tastes just like Starlight mint candies! This is a great way to use up some leftover candy you might have from Christmas. This pretty beverage would be wonderful to serve the youngsters on Valentine's Day!

In pot, combine milk, mints, chocolate chips, half-and-half, milk powder and cornstarch. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking, until mints have melted and mixture is smooth. For extra frothy, pour into blender; cover and blend. If desired, brush rims of 4 mugs with syrup; dip into crushed mints. Divide hot chocolate among mugs; top with marshmallows or other desired toppings. Serve with candy cane sticks, if you like.

Makes 4 servings

Make it a cocktail: Add 2 Tablespoons clear chocolate vodka to each serving.

Snapshots From the Heart and Soul

All about food and flowers and a little of everything in between that makes me smile or inspires me.

Things like: perennial gardening, nature walks and what I call "feathering my nest"...which literally means decorating my abode. I'll blog about family & friends and entertaining in addition to passing along my recommendations for good books to read or movies to watch, as that's how I spend some of my free time.
